The reason we keep coming back is that it's a phenomenally serious event with serious people who really want to do business. We almost always get at least 1, 2, 3 new customers from every single event.

Being a part of Connect Marketplace is a wonderful way to meet with suppliers from all over the country in one place. No need to travel to different cities which saves time and money, not to mention saving the environment. I am able to meet with people I do business with, and also meet with new up and coming cities. At Connect Marketplace there is something for every planner, from tier one cities such as New York & Co, Chicago but also cities like Pasadena, Louisville, Omaha etc.
